People who cry about high fuel costs and blame Trump must not have noticed Biden cancelling the Keystone XL pipeline, oil and gas leases on public lands, especially in Alaska. Wahhhh.

Not to mention his impact on the coal industry.

Clueless, smh

Trump just fired the commissioner of labor statistics for truthing. 

My cousin just sent me this:  

“BREAKING | She is accused

of cooking the books. The commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics Dr. Erika

McEntarfer has been fired today on accusations of over-politicizing her job.

President Trump says she was instrumental in overstating jobs growth by more than 800,000 jobs while trying to make the Biden economic plan look more successful than it was. Who will give the President a fist-bump for stomping politicization out of government work!???”

I guess you and I have a different understanding of what truth means!

As I always say about liberals -- you can have your own opinions but you can't have your own facts!

I've hired people and ended up having to let them go for poor work performance. 

The bow down narrative is just a new Democratic talking point......before you were conditioned to say it, how many times in your life have you said it......my guess would be zero

I will say, Democrats and the media are good at repeating messages......

And I will say Trump had no problem jumping all over the 818,000 downward revision the same person (McEntarfer, appointed by Biden) released in August, 2024 - in the heat of a presidential election battle. It did not help the Democrats position so the Weasel ate it up. His posts on his Truth Social network roasted the dems over that report. Go on defending the indefensible.

She released the 818,000 downward revision in August, 2024 in the heat of a presidential election, numb****. That hurt her own party badly. Not a partisan move.
If you did your own research you’d know that BLS numbers are revised mainly due to slow or delayed reporting by employers. It is not a matter of politics. It’s the NUMBers.

The 818,0000 was the SECOND largest annual revision - #1 happening in 2009, that over 900,000 lower than reported.

This July number 258K is the largest 2 month reduction since 1979 (if you take out covid)

So under her watch she holds #1 and #2 top spots.......

Maybe it was time for her to go.

Maybe it’s the data collection system. Can you think in a non political way about anything pertaining to the federal government and its internal workings?
